Program Synopsis

A highly romanticized dramatization of the life of Rocky Marciano, the only heavyweight champion to have retired with a perfect record. LoBianco was well cast as Rocky, but petite Belinda Montgomery was all wrong for his wife, Barbara (in the eyes of this book's writer, a fellow Brocktonian). The focus of the film was on his private life, on which great liberties were taken by writer Paul Savage, rather than on his widely publicized career in the ring.
